So what does it mean to follow the theme? Inspired by the words of SJP, I created my own criteria for what this means:
1. Related to topic: I mean, duh, but there can be hours of debate on this topic alone. Was Kim K’s 2021 Balenciaga look really an interpretation of American fashion? IS IT CAMP????
2. Displays a high level of design and craftsmanship: I mean, this is a costume institute fundraiser.
3. Probably wouldn’t be worn on any other red carpet: This is more for the men who don a black tuxedo every year than the more avant-garde performers who pull it out of their pockets on every red carpet.
